Getting around Ebbsfleet
Cycling and walking
Walkways and cycleways continue to be embedded across Ebbsfleet to enable active, outdoor, healthy lifestyles. The Green Corridors programme aims to create a walking and cycling culture including improvements to the quality of life of residents and improved resident satisfaction, whilst making routes safer to use, appealing and less polluted from traffic. This programme will work alongside other projects, such as Active Travel, Wayfinding and Cycling Hubs to connect developments to walking and cycling infrastructure to make a fully connected network.

It links with the main Southeastern rail network at Dartford, Greenhithe (for Bluewater) and Gravesend as well as Ebbsfleet International.
Fastrack is an integral and essential part of the regeneration of the area, providing essential access to businesses & employment opportunities, education, healthcare and shopping.
